Brief Answer:
theoretically possible

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
This is possible. It would involve hormonal manipulation to get the uterus ready to implant the embryo. Then there would need to be an in vitro fertilization of the egg and sperm then that embryo would need to be implanted into the uterus.
This is a time consuming and expensive process but it has been done. It is called in vitro fertilization.
